I am long on this project and excited about it.
I am wondering, why it took so long for something like this to happen for Postgres, where as Vitess existed for MySQL more than a decade. I am not an expert, but I hear Citus is not really a fair comparison with Vitess.

We were thinking about adding PostgreSQL support to Vitess several years ago. However, we realized that it would be more efficient if each tool was focused on a specific task.

pgdog represents maybe just the VTGate portion of Vitess. There's a whole lot more to Vitess or any replication-on-top of a database type service than just the query router.
